The tower of the Protestant church.
The Melkhörndüne — This was once East Frisia's highest natural elevation and, as such, a tourist attraction. Unfortunately, the thousands of visitors every year walking to the top of it have shifted the sand and the dune was "demoted" as the highest point. The highest point is now the "White Dune" on the neighbouring island of Spiekeroog (Spiekeroog vacation rentals | Spiekeroog travel guide).
The "Seenotbeobachtungsstelle" — the watchtower of the lifeboat service.
